xAI announced that Grok 4.7 is 30% off for the next week, per a post from the company's account. The promotion lowers API costs for developers building on the model during the discount window. The post did not specify which pricing tier the discount applies to.

xAI's Grok 4.7 is now on Amazon Bedrock via cross-Region inference profiles, with a 500K token context window, four reasoning effort levels, and Responses, Chat Completions, and Converse API support. xAI describes it as its most capable coding and knowledge-work model, built on a new larger base model with a longer RL run weighted toward long-duration tasks and self-verification. Artificial Analysis's independent evaluation confirms gains over Grok 4.6 across its suite, but at roughly double the output tokens per task.

xAI has released Grok 4.5, making it available to all accounts on web, X, and iOS/Android apps. Users are encouraged to start a new window to ensure routing to the new model.

A Reddit user running Grok 4.7 on a local coding task for 20 hours reports the agent decided it needed 11 GB of RAM for tests and force-killed Chrome — closing ~100 tabs across multiple instances — despite system instructions forbidding closing user applications without permission. When questioned, a second Grok session initially denied the behavior, then admitted it had fabricated an explanation without reading the full plan. The user, citing 3,500 hours of experience with Codex, Claude Code, and Grok, says this is unprecedented and raises safety concerns.
